Energy and financial access for the last mile
Millions of Nigerians live where the grid doesn't reach or doesn't deliver. Betapawa brings them clean solar power and the financial services that come with it: BetaPod community solar stations, the pay-as-you-go Betapawa Box, an IoT platform that monitors every site, and fair finance that lets people pay for what they use and own what they pay for.

Work with us
Funders, partners, governments and businesses: let's put clean power where it's needed most.
How we estimate CO₂ avoided: total solar capacity in our projects list × about 1,400kWh a year per kWp in Nigeria × about 0.8kg of CO₂ for each kWh a petrol or diesel generator would otherwise have produced. It is an estimate, not a measured figure.
